Cincinnati Bengals wideout A.J. Green makes an unbelievable leaping catch near the sidelines to later set up another catch for a seven-yard touchdown.

The Cincinnati Bengals have themselves a great quarterback/wide receiver tandem in Andy Dalton and A.J. Green. They were drafted together out of college in 2011 and the duo has been making big time plays for the Bengals the last six years.

Green is able to make outstanding plays on the ball because of his elite leaping skills. Here he is make a borderline unbelievable grab for the Bengals on Thursday Night Football against the Miami Dolphins in Week 4.

Dalton would scramble to his right on a second down from the Bengals’ 17-yard line and chuck it to Green who would come down with the grab at the Dolphins’ 34-yard line. This 49-yard completion would late set up a seven-yard touchdown reception by Green from Dalton.

That paydirt would put the Bengals up 10-7 on the Dolphins late in the first quarter. Here’s the clip of that touchdown pass from Dalton to Green.


Cincinnati needs to win this game to keep pace with the 3-0 Baltimore Ravens and the 2-1 Pittsburgh Steelers in the tough AFC North. The Bengals will be better than the lowly Cleveland Browns this season, but cannot afford to lose ground against its two other divisional rivals.

Miami is in a similar boat, as a 1-3 start would put the Dolphins substantially back of the 3-0 New England Patriots in the AFC East standings. It’s only Thursday Night Football in Week 4, but this is a high-stakes, must-win game for both teams here early in the 2016 NFL season.
